SOHO Telemetry Lost by NASA

Scientific telemetry from SOHO was lost at approximately 01:50 UT today, during a contact through the DSS-46 26-meter antenna of the Deep Space Network (DSN), as the spacecraft entered a telemetry “keyhole” expected to last until July 14.

Until that time, we will be able to monitor spacecraft and instrument health and safety in low-rate telemetry during contacts using DSN 34-meter antennas and one of the spacecraft’s low-gain antennas.
